none of these sellers keep the stuff in stock.. the mirrors are al the same, the baseplates are all different. They are still out of stock. few more weeks.

Just sayin.. if you call the manufacturer, they will tell you when the plates come in.

 

btw.. some cars look sahweet w the F1 mirrors:





But .........youd better have a race car if youre going to sport them.
Heres the autoteknics btw.. RIP.

 

aahh then i guess we have to wait then

and that third car is actually what gave me the idea to start looking for these when it was procharged with the black volks actually ordered from autotek and waited a couple of days before they told me they were discontinued psshh

 

yep, me too, same thing, then ordered the TCS.. and again, same thing.

Oh well.

 

little side note: not regarding the mirrors but never order anything from the KGS site posted... they never answer the phone or any emails

 

^^
I wouldn't go so far as to say that.. it's christmas and new years.. most places are closed the entire week..

 

^it would be very retarded for a business that sells products to close on the weeks leading up to xmas through new years. closing on xmas DAY and new years DAY is understandable

 

Small businesses ate almost always that way..even alot of the " big places" that we see as site sponsors employ less than 10-15 ppl. Just is what it is. If I owned a shop id be so down to gtfo of town fer the holidays haha.

 

OP, if you like them then that is all it counts. But because you asked for opinions I will go as far as saying that I hate the look of them, they don't even suit the cars styling and lines. I believe they are smaller than stock? If that's the case then why would someone go for something less functional? Stock looks the best imho. Perhaps change the look of the stock mirrors by painting them black or wrap in CF to freshen it up a little.

 

^^^ true dat.

U asked fer opinions.. yer gonna get em>

Yeah the OEM are just fine to be honest.. but they are huge heavy clunkers.
The F1 style are tinted, are generally convex and give a huge vieweing angle.. and for some cars, they look pretty cool.

In our case, not so much, but still.. very functional.

 

i love the style of the oem g35/350z mirrors (z mirrors slightly narrower). anyone know if the mirrors are swappable (the base part)

 

OP, bmccann101...did u guys ever pick these mirrors up?

 

I had autoteknics on my z roadster. Very nice but I had a problem with mine that if I went over 65 mph or so the mirrors would flex back and I'd have to adjust. Finally got tired and went back to stock.

 

You didn't twist the set screw did ya....

 

that screw is a real pain.. mine are floppy as well, but it can be done.. mine is still sittin in the shop so when its not being trailerd back n forth w mirrors folded in, ill fix it.

Yes, i did get some Autoteknics form a member on this forum last year, i dont have many pics of them installed, and none are recent:

 

Your missing some stuff in the front buddy.
